Anthony Miles & Corey Ellis have been traded to Gold Coast from Richmond for an exchange of 2019 3rd Round picks, Miles is headed to his 3rd AFL club after 10 games at the Giants and 61 games at the Tigers while Ellis played 27 games since his debut in 2015.
Miles has a career average of 22.2 Disposals, he averaged 23.1 Disposals in his 5 years at Richmond. Ellis has a career average of 11.9 Disposals, he was selected at pick 12 in the 2014 AFL Draft.
“We’ve said that were keen to target players who are looking for greater opportunity, are of great character and are keen to help drive our club forward, Corey and Anthony fit that perfectly” Gold Coast GM of List & Strategy Craig Cameron
AFL FANTASY TAKE: Miles should get plenty of opportunity in the Suns midfield and his generous price tag should make him a popular target early in 2019. Miles has scored 100pts or more in 32.0% of games since the beginning of 2016, make room for him on you pre-season watch list.
Ellis may thrive in a new environment on the Gold Coast, he does have a little upside based on his previous fantasy history. Ellis might be a early season cash generating player. Worth a glance in the pre-season for role and potential fantasy opportunity.
